Overview

The first bike station in Veneto. Active at Tenuta Santa Maria Valverde, the first bike station in Veneto is available for cyclists pedaling through a landscape of hills, farms, villas, and vineyards. Valpolicella is loved by cyclists for its wealth of nature trails and the uniqueness of its landscapes. In particular, many athletes choose to tackle the curves and bends leading to the Crocetta of Marano di Valpolicella by bike. At Tenuta Santa Maria Valverde, cyclists can stop, make minor repairs, and rest at the special Bike Station set up here, the first Bike Station in a winery in Veneto. With a refreshment point for cyclists. The cyclist, arriving almost at the top of the hill of Monte Crocetta in Marano di Valpolicella in the province of Verona, finds refreshment, hospitality, and can also taste a good glass of Valpolicella wine. Tenuta Santa Maria Valverde also has 7 brand new e-bikes with Fantic motors and fat wheels to explore the estate's vineyards by bike and experience the countryside in a green and sustainable way.

Special notes

Medium difficulty level: knowing how to ride a bicycle is required. Required training level: medium-low. The assisted traction of the e-bike helps with pedaling, but muscular participation is still required.

Itinerary

We will visit many historical and natural sites with the guide: an ancient temple dedicated by the Romans to the worship of the goddess Minerva, ancient remnants of the population that dominated the world. We will traverse the dense forest within the Valpolicella Park, oak groves, arboreta, ancient natural springs with clear waters, and steep cliffs. Along the way, we will pass through rows of vineyards and ancient stone rural villages. A day of spiritual and visual liberation.
